I wanted to be able to power critical components in my house and garage including two (2) freezers and my refrigerator as well as lights, fans, well, TV. I fired up the generator with no issues. The push-start is so much better than having to hand-crank. Surprisingly, the generator is not as loud as I expected it. My older 5200W aftermarket generator seems twice as loud. I tested connectivity to my house today and all devices worked great. I was even able to use the microwave. The only exception were the two (2) UPS connected to my TV and network devices. Even after adjusting sensitivity on these UPS, they still don't like being on generator power and switch back-and-forth between generator power and battery power. I understand an inverter generator is needed for this type of equipment. Overall, I feel very well prepared that I won't have to sit in the dark during hurricane season. I'm very glad I purchased this product.

I purchased the WGEN9500 gas only genny as the only power source for building an off-grid home in the Rockies. This portable little beast never fell short through all seasons. In the winter we also had a 40 ft RV hooked up. We never had a power shortage as long as we kept it fueled. I highly recommend this genny for heavy duty and continuous use year round.

I bought this portable generator after experiencing 2 power outages, one during freezing cold temperatures and one during blazing hot temperatures. Luckily, I haven't experienced another power outage yet but when it happens, I will be prepared thanks to the Westinghouse 9500 Running Watts gas generator. I like the bonus key fob that came with generator, that was a plus!

After a lot of research we chose the Westinghouse 9500 generator as or back-up power source for our house. Best bang for the buck! This is a well built machine with the features we wanted. It arrived quickly and required minimal assembly (tires and oil). I also plan on using the generator for working around our property. Overall extremely happy with this purchase.

I have been debating on purchasing a generator and I finally decided to purchase one. After researching several different generators, I chose this one due to great reviews and a great price. Assembly is easy and very easy to start. I did a test run with it and it seems to be perfect for me.

So far the generator has been Great! I did a test for my in home hook up and it ran everything, I mean Everything A/C, Well pump, you name it it does it. It is not that loud. Little noise but when your without power whats more important? Noise or power? (A/C). Its about the same noise as the Duromax 4850 I replaced it with. Cranks up every time when I do the monthly check and I haven't had to really put it to the test yet and hope I don't have to but if I do it will hold its own. After last year, being hit by Hurricane Florence In NC I thought It would be best to upgrade to a bigger Generator that ran everything and the price was great. Purchased it Online from Home Depot. They priced matched because it was cheaper from another known retailer. I would recommend this to anyone.

Great generator. It was very easy to take out of the box and get up and running. I really like the remote start keyfob. My wife will finally be able to run it when I am not home. The gas gauge is easy to read. The best thing about the generator is that it is quiet compared to my old generator. Hate to say it but maybe the power needs to go out for a little bit so I can put it through its paces.

We live in a rural area and when the power goes out, it can take some time for the linemen to get out this way. Now they can take there sweet time if they need to because this generator will power everything that I need to here on the farm. Great product and i would recommend to anyone that needs some serious power

I needed a new generator to run 3 sump pumps, a pool pump and well pump in case of an outage (especially in heavy rain conditions), never mind lights or appliances. I have lived in my house for over 25 years and although I have had “infrequent” outages, some have been lengthy (out for several days) and some have come with lots of rain —- 9” in six hours —- I live in Indiana). I had an older, noisy generator that could run 2 power cords (plus a couple more using surge strips) to run the sump pumps in the basement and the pool pump to help drain down the pool in case of another massive downpour. With this generator, I have almost 2x the power I had before, and I will eventually have it switched to the breaker box so I won’t have to string cords down the stairs; and designated circuits will get switched on when the generator is “plugged in”. There should be enough power to run the a/c or furnace if needed. I’m (72 yr F) and not strong enough anymore to pull stubborn start cords easily and the push start is a godsend (it has a remote starter as well). I also opted for just the gas powered, as I don’t use propane for anything else, and didn’t want to hook up to the natural gas line (no outdoor shed). I also like the usb port feature so I can charge my devices (with WiFi unavailable, my phone charge goes down fast), and the carbon monoxide alarm is a good safety feature, along with the gauge to monitor fuel level, run hours, etc. I don’t need to peek into the gas tank with a flash light anymore and guess at how much fuel is left in it. The generator can also automatically adjust the rpm to a lower level so it’s not running at full blast or one run speed when the output needed is small. The only complaints i have are when I was setting it up —- (1). the quick guide has very small close-up pictures instructing how to put on the 2 wheels and 2 foot brackets. The user manual has much larger and simpler pictures, but I didn’t know that until after assembly. (2). it might also be useful to know that the oil reservoir will take @ 2/3 of the quart of oil (included) to fill—- I probably checked the level 10 times because I was mindful not to overfill. (3) couldn’t find the key fob for some time that was clipped to part of the engine under the top of the machine —— maybe a note with the battery or parts bag (or set-up guide) saying where to find it would be helpful. Ironically, I had just had the generator delivered 1 1/2 days before a storm and power outage and hadn’t set it up yet, so I had to put it together in semi-darkness in the garage and the power came back on shortly, about the same time as I was filling the oil reservoir. Otherwise, easy-peasy set-up, and a lovely, quiet machine that stays put and doesn’t dance around. I am actually looking forward to my next power outage.

they asked you to warranty and review even though there has not been an event to use the generator for. At this time I can say the product arrived as advertised and the assembly was easy. Looks like a fine piece of equipment. Here's hoping everything goes smoothly when I need it.
